The fourth excerpt represents the element of Earth. It speaks of physical influences and the impact of the unseen on the visible world, and is drawn from King James Bible: night; and when it was morning, the east wind brought the locusts.
EXO 10:14 And the locust went up over all the land of Egypt, and rested
in all the coasts of Egypt: very grievous were they; before them there
were no such locusts as they, neither after them shall be such.
EXO 10:15 For they covered the face of the whole earth, so that the
land was darkened; and they did eat every herb of the land, and all the
fruit of the trees which the hail had left: and there remained not any
green thing in the trees, or in the herbs of the field, through all the
land of Egypt.
EXO 10:16 Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste; and he
said, I have sinned against the LORD your God, and against you.
